Moss Vale Station and Stabling Yard Upgrade

Project overview

The NSW Government is delivering an upgrade to Moss Vale Station and Stabling Yard to achieve Disability Standards for Accessible Public Transport 2002 (DSAPT) compliance and to accommodate the new Regional Rail fleet.

Detailed design, planning and heritage approvals are now under way for the Moss Vale Station and Stabling Yard Upgrade. The Review of Environmental Factors has now been published.

The project will provide a station precinct that is accessible to those with a disability, limited mobility, parents/carers with prams and passengers with luggage, while ensuring it aligns with Moss Vale’s transport needs.

The project is expected to commence in mid 2024.*
